Example A solid steel shaft at room temperature of 27°C is needed to be contracted so it can be shrunk-fit into a hollow hub. It is placed in a refrigerated chamber that is maintained at −33°C. The rate of change of temperature of the solid shaft q is given by Find the temperature of the steel shaft after 24 hours. Take a step size of h = seconds.
